I have a pair of 7.5 pound Halon extinguishers, one by the driver's
seat <http://tinyurl.com/cd8nw> and another inside by the slider in
the standard westy location. Halons are only rated for liquid or
electrical fires, but that's mostly what you'd run into in a vehicle
fire, right? One advantage to Halons have over dry powder is that they
have a practically indefinite shelf life. The disadvantage is that
Halon is CFC and no longer made, thus all Halon extinguishers are
filled with Halon from an ever-diminishing pool of the stuff and it's
quite a bit more expensive.
